How the energizer works
HOW THE ENERGIZER WORKS
The energizer sends electrical pulses along the fence line, about one second apart.
These pulses give the animal a short, sharp, but safe shock. The shock doesn't harm
the animal. It is sufficiently memorable that the animal never forgets the shock,
and will avoid the fence.
Practical Hints
•
Check your local ordinance on fencing laws: local laws may require a permit
before use.
•
Periodically check that the energizer is operating by checking that the
indicator light is flashing.
•
Check the fence periodically. Remove any fallen branches, weeds or shrubs
because these will cause the fence to short out and will reduce animal
control.
•
All animals need time to learn to respect the fence. It may take several days to
train the animal and the fence may require minor adjustments.
•
Animals that are prone to jumping may be difficult to confine. You may need
to try different fence heights to determine the best height.
•
Use top quality insulators: low quality or cracked insulators and plastic tubing
are not recommended because they will cause shorting.
•
Use joint clamps on all steel wire connections to ensure a high quality circuit.
•
This energizer must be earthed using galvanised metal earth stakes to ensure
the electric fence works correctly.
•
Double Insulated Cable should be used in buildings, under gateways and
where soil could corrode exposed galvanised wire. Never use household
electrical cable. It is made for a maximum of 600 volts and will leak electricity.
•
On permanent power fencing, use high tensile 12.5 gauge (2.5 mm) wire.
